History
The San Juan Islands were first inhabited by the Coast Salish people, who lived in the area for thousands of years before the arrival of Europeans. The first Europeans to explore the islands were Spanish explorers, who named them after Juan de Fuca, a Greek navigator who explored the area in 1592.
In 1841, the United States and Great Britain signed the Oregon Treaty, which established the border between the two countries at the 49th parallel. This placed the San Juan Islands in American territory. In 1853, the US and Great Britain agreed to a joint occupation of the islands, which lasted until 1872. During this period, the islands were used for farming, fishing, and logging.
In 1872, the US and Great Britain agreed to a boundary arbitration, which awarded the islands to the United States. In 1873, San Juan County was established, and the county seat was established in Friday Harbor.
